Thomas Jolyffe Primary School

Pupil Voice

'We work things out by drawing, writing and talking. I love challenge questions because I feel like I’m doing more maths to work it out.' - Albie, Year 2

 

'I love the challenge questions – they make me excited to stretch my brain.' - Athira, Year 3

 

'I learn best when there’s lots of repetition and saying sentences back helps' - Louis, Year 4

 

'Of course I love maths! I feel like a mathematician – I’m really proud of getting certificates and being told I’m a superstar.' - Kaitlyn, Year 5

Thomas Jolyffe Primary School is determined for all pupils to succeed. Since the previous inspection, many changes have been made. The school has prioritised the development of the curriculum to promote high expectations for all pupils. Staff invest in pupils to build positive relationships with them. Personal development is a strength. The school provides opportunities to enrich pupils’ experiences. Pupils value participating in sporting competitions, such as cross country, football and netball. They also take on positions of responsibility, including school councillors and inclusion champions. Pupils value the leadership skills that they are developing. The school has developed an inclusive environment, where all pupils participate in every aspect of school life. Recently, the school has had a new library. The pupils are very proud of it and say, ‘It is a reading wonderland. It is like walking into another world.’ (OFSTED April 2024)
